| Abstract [eng] |
This chapter examines the experience of teaching English related courses at Vilnius University (VU), ´the oldest and largest Lithuanian institution of higher education, in the spring 2020. We discuss arrangements made in the organizational process and implementation of the subjects within the areas taught in English by the staff members of the Institute of Foreign Languages, Faculty of Philology, VU. Limiting our account to the period when the instruction was changed abruptly from face-to-face to remote, we focus on three areas of instruction: the intra-course logistics of transferring students to the remote synchronous method of instruction, the delivery of a course syllabus in the lockdown conditions, and student reflections on the experience. |
